Training Description: This interactive, skills-based, intermediate-level virtual training will begin with a brief overview of the ASAM criteria and a cross-walk between the levels of care articulated in the ASAM criteria and the levels of care defined by the DMC Waiver. Following the brief review of the ASAM criteria, participants will take a case scenario, develop risk ratings based upon a completed assessment, and then develop an individualized treatment plan to address the problem areas identified across each of the six dimensions, including long and short term goals, and actions steps the patient and staff will implement.
